THE VALUE OF LAND - 2015 ELD Report Launch#ELDsolutions

Land degradation is an increasing issue globally, exacerbated by climate
change and affecting food security, threatening water resources and
ultimately acting as a driver to migration.

The ELD study, undertaken over the past 4 years, quantifies the costs of
land degradation and sets out a universal approach for quantifying the
economic benefits of sustainable land management. It aims to enable
decision makers to better understand the overall costs and benefits when
implementing policies and actions dealing with land.

The Economics of Land Degradation (ELD) Initiative
<http://eld-initiative.org/> is a platform for discussion between
stakeholders from the policy, science, and private sectors that focuses on
developing globally-relevant data on the economic benefits of land and
land-based ecosystems. Aiming at these target groups, the initiative has
compiled specific reports: one primary main report, and a parallel report
geared towards policy and decision-makers.

These will be launched and presented at international high-level events in
September 2015.
